Reason: In order to minimise danger, obstruction and inconvenience to users of the highway and the premises.

5) Before the access is first brought into use a triangular vision splay shall be provided on the west side of the new access and shall measure 1.8m along the fence, wall, hedge or other means of definition of the front boundary of the site, and 1.8m measured into the site at right angles to the same line along the side of the new access drive and the east side of the site, the east boundary shall be lowered to 600mm for 1.8m into the site measured from the highway boundary.
